What does the conversation imply about the mother? [originaltext]M: Time to eat!

M: Time to eat!
W: Coming. Oh, I’m starving. Oh yuck! What’s that?
M: Ah, don’t complain.
W: But what is it, and where is mom?
M: Now, mom put me in charge of dinner because she’s not feeling well tonight.
W: But what is it... and that smell!
M: It’s pizza. I just followed an old family recipe here, and...
W: Let me see that... Oh, dad, you’re missing a page!
M: Oh, uh, well, uh... well I couldn’t find the second page of the recipe. But don’t worry; I have plenty of experience around the house. Plenty of cooking experience.
W: That’s not what mom says.
M: Well, wait; here let me try a piece first. Here, let me cool this off here. Oh, this is great stuff.
W: Yeah right. Why are you making that face?
M: Well, it’s just a little rich for me. That’s all.
W: Let me try it, Dad. Uh, Dad. You put a little too much salt in it and besides it’s burned. And what’s that?
M: Oh, well, that’s just part of my own adaptation to the recipe. I added some pumpkin.
W: Oh, not another one of your surprises. Pumpkin doesn’t go on pizza!
M: Well, okay, so what? What do we do now?
W: Well, how about some cold cereal... You can’t mess up on that, Dad.
M: Oh, I love cereal.
